Ultra mini-VOA
Get up to 40 dB of dynamic power control in a single channel using our (Bright type) ultra mini Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA) based on innovative ES-MEMS technology.
These devices are available for either C- or L-Band use and require only a low (0-5.5 V) drive voltage. They feature an insertion loss of only 0.8 dB (at V=0). They are also fast with a response time of just 5 ms. Plus they are very durable, delivering >109 cycles.
Ultra mini-VOA
Applications include all types of power management such as power balancing between amplification stages, as well as channel equalization and channel balancing.
